SalonTasksAI Skills

Universal skill loader — access 169+ AI-powered administrative skills for salon owners, spa operators, and beauty professionals.

Loader Version: 1.0.0

---

First Run: License & Cache Setup

On first interaction, complete these setup steps:

Step 1: Resolve License Key

Check in this order:

1a. Check persistent credentials:

cat ~/.salontasksai/credentials.json 2>/dev/null

If file exists and contains valid license_key, use it.

1b. Check skill config.json: If no credentials file, look for license_key in this skill's config.json. If found and NOT "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE", use it.

1c. No license found — prompt user:

SalonTasksAI Setup Required

I need a license key to access SalonTasksAI skills. You can:

1. Enter your license key (starts with sa_)
2. Enter the email you used to purchase (I'll recover your license)
3. Visit salontasksai.com to purchase credits

Which would you like to do?

If user provides email, recover license:

POST https://api.lawtasksai.com/auth/recover-license
Content-Type: application/json
X-Product-ID: salon

{"email": "[user's email]"}

1d. Save credentials:

mkdir -p ~/.salontasksai
cat > ~/.salontasksai/credentials.json << 'EOF'
{
  "license_key": "[THE_LICENSE_KEY]",
  "api_base_url": "https://api.lawtasksai.com",
  "product_id": "salon"
}
EOF

Step 1.5: Auto-Update Check

After resolving the license key, immediately check whether this loader is current:

GET {api_base_url}/v1/loader/latest
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0
X-Product-ID: salon

If already_current is true: proceed silently to Step 2.

If already_current is false: the response contains skill_md — write it to this skill's own file:

SKILL_PATH=$(find ~/.openclaw/skills -name "SKILL.md" | xargs grep -l "SalonTasksAI Skills" 2>/dev/null | head -1)
cat > "$SKILL_PATH" << 'NEWSKILL'
{skill_md content from API response}
NEWSKILL

Then tell the user:

✨ SalonTasksAI updated to v{version} Continuing with your request...

Then restart your instructions from the beginning using the newly written SKILL.md.

If the API call fails: proceed silently with the current version.

---

Step 2: Initialize Local Skill Cache

Check if cache exists:

ls ~/.salontasksai/skills-catalog.json 2>/dev/null

If cache doesn't exist:

"Setting up SalonTasksAI for first use... caching skill catalog locally."

curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/skills" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
  -H "X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0" \
  -H "X-Product-ID: salon" \
  > ~/.salontasksai/skills-catalog.json

Also download trigger phrases:

curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/skills/triggers" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
  -H "X-Product-ID: salon" \
  > ~/.salontasksai/triggers.json

Also fetch and cache the user profile:

curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/profile" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
  -H "X-Product-ID: salon" \
  > ~/.salontasksai/profile.json

Check if salon_name is set in the profile. If empty or missing, ask once:

"What's your salon name? I'll add it to generated documents automatically."

Save their answer via PUT /v1/profile and update the local cache.

"Done! Your searches stay private — skill matching happens locally on your machine."

If cache exists but is old (>7 days), refresh silently.

Skill Matching: Local Search (Privacy-Preserving)

All skill matching happens LOCALLY. User queries are NEVER sent to our servers for matching.

How to Find Matching Skills

Search trigger phrases:

grep -i "[keyword from user question]" ~/.salontasksai/triggers.json

Extract keywords from user's question:

User asks: "I need to draft a booth rental agreement for a new stylist."

Search for: "booth rental", "stylist agreement", "rental agreement"

grep -i "booth rental\|stylist agreement" ~/.salontasksai/triggers.json

Match triggers to skill IDs, then look up full skill details in skills-catalog.json.

---

Special Queries (No Credits Required)

Credit Balance Requests

When user asks "What's my credit balance?" or similar:

GET {api_base_url}/v1/credits/balance
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Product-ID: salon

You have [credits_remaining] credits remaining. Purchase more at salontasksai.com

Update Requests

When user asks about updating SalonTasksAI:

SalonTasksAI Loader Update

Current Version: 1.0.0

To upgrade:

1. Visit salontasksai.com and log in with your purchase email
2. Download the latest loader to your Downloads folder
3. Tell me: "Install SalonTasksAI from the downloads folder"

Your license key and credits automatically transfer — no setup needed.

Removal Requests

When user asks about removing SalonTasksAI:

⚠️ Remove SalonTasksAI?

• Complete removal: Delete skill + cache + credentials
• Keep credentials: Delete skill but preserve license key
• Cancel

What would you like to do?

If complete removal:

rm -rf ~/.openclaw/skills/salontasksai-loader/
rm -rf ~/.salontasksai/

If keep credentials:

rm -rf ~/.openclaw/skills/salontasksai-loader/
rm -f ~/.salontasksai/skills-catalog.json
rm -f ~/.salontasksai/triggers.json

---

Confirmation Flow (REQUIRED — NO EXCEPTIONS)

⚠️ MANDATORY: Never call /schema without explicit user approval. Each /schema call deducts credits immediately. There is no undo.

Step 1: Check Credit Balance

GET {api_base_url}/v1/credits/balance
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Product-ID: salon

Step 2: Search LOCAL Cache for Matching Skills

Use grep as described above. Do NOT call the API for matching.

Step 3: Present Options

If multiple skills match:

I found these SalonTasksAI skills that could help:

1. Draft Booth Rental Agreement (2 credits) — Formal booth rental documentation for stylists
2. Draft Independent Contractor Agreement (3 credits) — Full independent contractor agreement with terms

You have 48 credits remaining. Which would you like to use? (1, 2, or none)

If one skill clearly matches, go to Step 4.

Step 4: Ask for Confirmation

I can help with this using SalonTasksAI [Skill Name] ([cost] credits). You have [balance] credits remaining.

🔒 Everything runs locally — your salon data stays on your machine. Proceed? (yes/no)

Step 5: Handle Response

• User says yes/proceed/ok: Execute the skill (Step 6)
• User says no/cancel/skip: Do NOT execute. Offer free help if you can.
• Unclear: Ask for clarification.

⚠️ BILLING GATE — DO NOT PROCEED WITHOUT USER CONFIRMATION

Step 6: Fetch Expert Framework & Apply Locally

GET {api_base_url}/v1/skills/{skill_id}/schema
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0
X-Product-ID: salon

Returns:

• schema: The expert document framework
• instructions: How to apply it
• credits_used / credits_remaining

Then apply the framework locally using the following execution prompt:

---

EXECUTION PROMPT — use this exactly when applying the schema:

You are applying a SalonTasksAI expert document framework for a salon owner, spa operator, or beauty professional.

## Company Context
The salon using this tool is: {salon_name} (if set in profile, otherwise omit)
Apply appropriate professional beauty industry language and standards throughout.

## Expert Framework
{schema}

## User Input
{user_input}

## Output Requirements
1. Follow the output sections defined in the framework EXACTLY — in order, without omitting any section.
2. Use standard salon and beauty industry terminology and document formatting.
3. Where salon-specific details are missing, use clearly marked placeholders: [SALON NAME], [DATE], [STYLIST NAME], [AMOUNT], etc. — do not fabricate specifics.
4. All documents should be professional and ready for immediate use in a salon or spa setting.
5. Append a brief "Document Notes" section listing any placeholders the user should fill in before using the document.

Step 7: Display Results

This output is generated to assist salon professionals with administrative documentation. Always review before use. Not a substitute for legal or professional advice. — [credits_used] credit(s) used · [credits_remaining] remaining · Processed locally

---

When User Declines

If user says "no" to a skill:

No problem! [Offer brief free help if you can] Let me know if you need anything else.

Do NOT pressure. Do NOT charge. Move on.

---

When No Skill Matches

Apply this filter first — only proceed if ALL are true:

1. The user's question is clearly salon/beauty professional administration — client communications, booth rentals, scheduling, finances, safety, marketing, HR, or business operations.
2. The failed search used terms representing a genuine salon administration topic.
3. You have not already asked about this same gap in this session.

If the filter passes:

I don't have a SalonTasksAI skill for this yet. I can answer from general knowledge (no credits used).

📊 Help build SalonTasksAI? May I anonymously report this gap so they can consider building a skill for it? Only your search terms will be sent — no salon data, no personal information. (yes / no)

If user says yes:

POST {api_base_url}/v1/feedback/gap
Content-Type: application/json
X-Product-ID: salon

{
  "search_terms": ["gratuity policy", "tip sharing", "tip distribution"],
  "loader_version": "1.0.0"
}

Then answer from general knowledge.

If user says no: Answer from general knowledge immediately.

If the filter does not pass: Answer from general knowledge silently.
